Geopolitics to Drive Gold Prices Higher During 2009 / Commodities / Gold & Silver 2009
By: Mark_OByrne
Gold has commenced the New Year as it did in 2008 – up sharply in early trading before selling off somewhat. Gold surged (along with oil) on the open in Asia on geopolitical concerns with the Israeli military offensive against Gaza escalating. However, with oil giving up some of its earlier gains and the dollar stronger against most currencies so far this morning, gold has given up its earlier gains.Read full article...

Gold and Crude Oil Trading 2009 Special Report / Commodities / Gold & Silver 2009
By: Chris_Vermeulen
Gold Trading: Gold closed higher for the week with very low volume due to the holidays. It is difficult to get a feel for where stocks and commodities are headed in the near term because of this light volume. Generally during holiday season light volume favors the longs and prices generally drift higher, which is what we had last week. The charts below will show you how I see the market and how I react to these salutations. Read full article... Read full article...

Silver Technicals Point to Correction Lower / Commodities / Gold & Silver 2009
By: Clive_Maund
Although silver does not look as vulnerable to a reaction as gold on the charts, it will likely drop in sympathy should gold go into reverse near-term as expected. On the 1-year chart we can see that overall silver still looks good, with it having broken decisively out of the downtrend of the latter half of last year and also clear above its 50-day moving average, which has now turned up, with the MACD indicator trending upwards too. These positive developments have created the conditions for a new uptrend to get underway. Read full article... Read full article...

Gold Rallying Towards Resistance / Commodities / Gold & Silver 2009
By: Clive_Maund
We've been here before haven't we? Gold has been in a rising trend for some considerable time, taking it to trendline or resistance targets, and then "wham!" it gets whacked back down again. Certainly the long-term outlook for gold is excellent, especially given the strong and increasing demand for physical, but over the short to medium-term it now looks set to get taken down again.

By: The_Gold_Report
With more than 20 years of experience in the investment industry, Sheldon Inwentash, chairman and CEO of both Pinetree Capital and Mega Uranium sheds some light on the future of gold and navigating the “murky and tricky” junior space.
The Gold Report: Sheldon, from a macro overview, where do you see the precious metals going? The U.S. government and all central bankers are jumping in at unprecedented levels. The Fed says it's going to throw in everything it's got to stimulate. Is it going to be enough and what will that mean for commodities? Or, if it doesn't work, what does that mean?

Agribusiness ETF Should See Upside Continuation / Commodities / Agricultural Commodities
By: Mike_Paulenoff
One sector that I continue to follow closely is agribusiness, which technically argues for upside continuation from a base-like pattern structure that has developed since early October. A hurdle of key resistance at 29.25/75 in the Market Vectors Agribusiness ETF (AMEX: MOO) should trigger upside continuation towards 35.00-36.00 thereafter.Read full article... Read full article...

How to Invest in Crude Oil 2009 / Commodities / Crude Oil
By: Richard_Shaw
Oil as a commodity is an interesting real asset. What investments most directly create the economic effect of owning oil itself?
The best answer would be to own an oil well, or better yet, own an entire oil exporting country. However, neither of those options is a practical answer for most investors, certainly not owning a country (unless, of course you are born into the right family).

Agri-Foods Strong Bull Market Investment Fundamentals / Commodities / Agricultural Commodities
By: Ned_W_Schmidt
Gold Bugs, and others deemed misguided by the Street, missed out on another one. If they had listened to really smart people, they would have had their money with Bernie Madoff. Are Gold Bugs ever going to truly understanding real investing? You kept your wealth in Gold coins locked away at the bank or in a Gold ETF. You could have had your wealth with some really big name hedge fund-of-funds instead. You too could have had your wealth vaporized. Oh well, maybe you will get it right next time.

Silver Ripe for Another Upleg / Commodities / Gold & Silver 2009
By: Mike_Paulenoff
The iShares Silver ETF (AMEX: SLV) has carved out an intriguing pattern since early October, which has the look of a base, an attempted upside breakout, followed by a (recent) sideways consolidation (between 11.50 and 10.00). Some people might even call this pattern a "cup and handle," which if accurate means that after another few sessions of sideways digestion circling 10.50, the SLV should take off to the upside into a new upleg that propels prices towards 12.50 next. Only a breach of 10.00 will wreck the developing pattern set-up.Read full article... Read full article...

USO Crude Oil ETF Gives Back Gains / Commodities / Crude Oil
By: Mike_Paulenoff
Forces of Deflation Remain Strong as Oil Gives Back Gains - Wow, the US Oil Fund ETF (NYSE: USO) gave back all its gains from earlier this morning, which means the USO declined nearly 7% since its pre-opening up-gap. What this tells us (perhaps) is that Mid-East hostilities and saber rattling or not, it is unlikely that the crude oil complex will put in a "V" bottom.Read full article... Read full article...
